Addison is aChicago "L"station on theChicago Transit AuthorityRed Line. It is located in the Wrigleyville area of theLakeview neighborhood ofChicago,Illinois, at 940 West Addison Street with city block coordinates at 3600 North at 940 West. Addison directly servesWrigley Field, home ofMajor League Baseball'sChicago Cubs. The station is within the shadow of the historic baseball stadium, which was built with convenient access to the "L" in mind.

Following Cubs games, this station can become heavily crowded; many fans often use the next station to the north,Sheridan.Purple Line weekday rush hour express service use the outside tracks but do not stop at this station.

Transit art

[edit]

Chicago artist Steve Musgrave has several murals featuring Cubs legends on display at the Addison station, which he adopted as part of the CTA's Adopt-A-Station program in 1998. Four large murals feature Cubs legendsBilly Williams,Ferguson Jenkins, "Mr. Cub,"Ernie Banks andRyne Sandberg.[3] A smaller painting ofHarry Caray was added later.[citation needed]

Since 1998, Musgrave has also designed posters commemorating the annual Cubs–Sox crosstown series.[4] Beginning in 2003, the CTA has also issued farecards featuring the poster design.[5]

Service

[edit]

Prior to 2007, southbound afternoonPurple Line Express trains stopped at the station before weekday evening Cubs games, to speed travel times for customers fromEvanston,Skokie andWilmette. In an effort to prevent delays due to Brown Line construction just south of the station, Purple Line Express trains now stop at the nearby Sheridan station instead.[6]

From March 5, 2015 to March 21, 2016, AMLoop-boundPurple Line express trains shared 95th-bound Red Line tracks and stopped at Addison. This was due to the first phase of theWilson station reconstruction.[7]
